I liked Crespi a lot, but I couldn't take another one of his classes so soon.

It's going to be rough. He'll probably tell us on the first day that 4 hours won't be enough to fit in all the material so we'll be having weekly day long "optional" review sessions on saturdays, then give us a 5 inch binder full of "optional" practice tests, and then an incredibly dense treatise to read, which of course will be optional.

Anyone know if supplements are helpful for B.E./what they might be?

I'm taking B.E., Income, Health law, and ADR...I've already found supplements for Income but I'm thinking (and I could be wrong) that supplements for the other classes might not be helpful/exist.

Thanks!

You think you're joking, but you're not. I'd be terrified of taking an actual 4-credit course with Crespi. It would end up being like 6 hours.

Between OCI, resume collection, and Phase II, when is it all over? At what point (roughly) do you know if you have something for the upcoming summer?

Like pornography, 2L summer employment timeline is something that's hard to put in finite terms but you'll know it when you see it.

I wanted to take that, but it's on Fridays. Bellin said he will probably teach it again in the spring too.

Nice. I'm taking Securities Reg, so I'll probably be in Evidence in the spring. I still can't believe that it won't be taught by Eads :cry:

I prefer Bellin to Eads, which is why I was waiting for spring. I'm already going to have to drop a class and I didn't want to add one class to go to on Fridays after I am there until 9:15 on Thursday.

Fuck. That means I will finish another spot lower in the class. I fucking hate you. I mean I love you. But seriously, I fucking hate you.

What's with the big rush to take evidence, especially considering Bellin is teaching it during spring?

There's a lot of stuff you can't take until you've taken Evidence.

Why the fuck do they send me an e-mail from financial aid that says I need to go apply for the Grad PLUS loan after I've already obviously done so? It pisses me off that they repeatedly request us to apply for that fucker when it runs a credit check every time. I can see that this financial aid shit is going to plague me well beyond my first year. Can you imagine how bad they're going to fuck it up between you and the government when it comes time to start repaying it?

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
